How do I find a mentor available in my time zone?
Use the Times Available filter on the GrowthMentor mentor search page. Pick the hours you want to talk, and you'll see every mentor who is available then.
How do I use the Times Available filter?
- Go to the mentor search page.
- Click Times Available in the filter bar.
- Tick one or more two-hour blocks, for example 6am - 8am and 8am - 10am for early calls.
- Add Days Available if you only want certain days, like weekdays or Saturday.
The day runs in 12 blocks, from 12am - 2am through to 10pm - 12am, so you can be as narrow or as wide as you like.
Who shows up?
Everyone who is available when you want to talk. Say you live in New York and like to do your calls in the morning. Pick the morning blocks and your results include mentors in New York and Chicago who take morning calls, and mentors in Europe who like to mentor in their evening. All of them are free during your morning.
What if I want someone who lives near me?
Fair enough, and the Country and City filters do that. But living nearby doesn't mean someone is free when you are. Say you're in Sydney and want calls before work. Plenty of Australian mentors only take calls at night, after their own workday. Times Available finds the people who are free in your morning, wherever they live.
So start from when you want to talk. You get the widest choice of mentors who can talk then.
What's the difference between Times Available and Sessions Blocks?
These two filters sit next to each other and do different jobs. Times Available is about when a mentor can talk. Sessions Blocks is about how long: 15, 30 or 60 minute calls.
Can I find someone soon, at a time that suits me?
Pair Times Available with the Next Available sort. You get mentors who are free in your hours, with the earliest open slots first. There are more tips in Which mentors answer fastest?
